SUPPLIER DIVERSITY PROGRAM

The Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada (RTC) has established a goal of 3.6% for Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) participation in federally funded contract opportunities for Federal Fiscal Years 2017-2019.

A description of the goal and the methodology used in selecting this goal is available for public review

Business enterprises wishing to get formal certification as a Disadvantaged-Owned Business Enterprise (DBE), Minority-Owned Business Enterprise (MBE), Small Business Enterprise (SBE) or Woman-Owned Business Enterprise (WBE) can visit the following websites:

The RTC has established a goal to identify, communicate and work with businesses that are certified DBEs. A DBE is defined as a small business that is socially or economically disadvantaged. To learn more about DBE qualifications, read the DBE program specified below.
It is the policy of the RTC to ensure nondiscrimination in the award and administration of U.S. Department of Transportation-assisted contracts and to create a level playing field on which DBEs can compete fairly for contracts and subcontracts.

Starting October 1, 2011, in support of the RTC’s sustainability effort to reduce paper costs, mailing costs and reduce project time, the RTC is using an electronic signature process called DocuSign. Suppliers having to sign contracts or amendments will receive an email notification from DocuSign that a document is in need of their review and signature. After clicking on “Review Document” signature authorities will need to follow the simple instructions to electronically sign the document. It will then be automatically forwarded to the next signature authority on the electronic routing. For more information on the electronic signature process, click here.
